Top Builds Brawl Stars Cordelius Guide!

CORDELIUS BEST BUILD

Cordelius possesses moderate health, deals high damage, moves at a rapid pace, and reloads quickly. His passive ability enables him to gradually charge his Super when enemies are nearby. He attacks by firing two mushrooms from his cannon. His Super unleashes a massive mushroom that transports both him and the targeted enemy to the shadow realm temporarily.

Cordelius benefits greatly from the Mushroom Kingdom Star Power. While using his Super, he can remain near the mushrooms to heal while attacking, making it challenging for enemies to engage without taking damage. The Poison Mushroom Gadget allows him to secure easy eliminations by dealing substantial close-range damage. This gadget proves particularly effective  against tanks and damage dealers, preventing them from charging their Super. However, the choice between gadgets depends on the map; the other gadget can also be highly effective. As Cordelius is commonly used on maps with dense bushes, equip the Speed gear to maintain distance. Additionally, use the Damage gear to dispatch enemies more efficiently!

POISON MUSHROOM

Cordelius’s next main attack shoots a poison mushroom that prevents the enemy from attacking for 1.0 seconds.

SPEED

Gain 15% SPEED INCREASE when moving in bushes

MUSHROOM KINGDOM

Cordelius spawns 3 mushrooms to the Shadow Realm after using his Super, healing allies and damaging enemies for 1460 health on pickup.

DAMAGE

Deals 15% EXTRA DAMAGE when your brawler is below 50% health

CORDELIUS SECOND BUILD

The Comboshrooms Star Power is also a viable choice for Cordelius as it allows him to eliminate enemies more swiftly. Being an assassin, Cordelius excels at dealing significant damage up close, making this Star Power particularly beneficial, especially against high-health brawlers. The Replanting Gadget is potent but relies more on the specific map and enemy lineup. Utilize it on maps with numerous walls or against throwers to leap towards them and secure kills. Given the usefulness of Cordelius's Gadgets, you might consider opting for the Gadget Charge gear instead of the Damage gear.

REPLANTING

Cordelius jumps over a piece of terrain quickly.

COMBOSHROOMS

Hitting the second mushroom to the same target as the first, deals 30% extra damage.

A precise guide for attack, super, hypercharge, traits, gadgets, and star power:

ATTACK

Cordelius launches two mushrooms, each dealing 1460 damage. With his rapid reload speed, he can inflict substantial damage in a short time. However, his limited range often requires him to take cover behind walls, particularly against snipers. His attack is among the most potent in the game, allowing him to eliminate most brawlers in fewer than three shots!

SUPER

Maisy releases a Shockwave that inflicts 2480 damage to all enemies within its range. This not only draws them nearer but can also disrupt specific abilities, such as Frank's and Bibi's primary attacks. It enables her to defeat tanks while maintaining distance. Moreover, her Super charges relatively fast, especially when combined with the right Star Power.

TRAITS

Cordelius charges his Super by staying near enemy Brawlers. Remain behind walls to passively charge your Super when you're unable to engage directly with enemies.

COMPLETE DARKNESS

When activated, Cordelius gains a +24% speed boost, +25% damage increase, and a +5% shield. Additionally, enemies transported to the Shadow Realm are now slowed down.

REPLANTING

Cordelius leaps over any terrain, catching enemies off guard and closing the distance. This Gadget proves highly effective against throwers and snipers, allowing you to eliminate them at close range when they are vulnerable. It also serves as an escape option, particularly in showdown matches.

POISON MUSHROOM

The next attack from Cordelius prevents the targeted enemy from firing for 1 second. This Gadget proves highly effective against close-range brawlers, as that brief pause can often allow Cordelius to nearly eliminate an opponent. Used correctly, this Gadget essentially guarantees a free kill. Activate it when enemies have used all three of their ammo shots.

COMBOSHROOMS

Cordelius's second attack shot inflicts 30% more damage if the first shot connects with the enemy. Employ this Star Power when confronting high-health brawlers. It requires precise aiming to use effectively; otherwise, you might only land one hit, rendering this Star Power ineffective.

MUSHROOM KINGDOM

When Cordelius uses his Super, three mushrooms materialize anywhere in his vicinity, either damaging enemies or healing allies (1460 damage or healing in total for each mushroom). Aim to lure your enemies near the mushrooms to eliminate them or utilize them for healing.

CORDELIUS BRAWL STARS PRO TIPS:

SCORE A GOAL WITH THE SUPER OR PREVENT ENEMY FROM SCORING

When near the enemy goal, you can shoot to score even with an opponent blocking your path and immediately use your Super on them, as they can't catch the ball in the Shadow Realm. Similarly, if an enemy carrying the ball is about to score and you're too distant to intercept the ball, activate your Super on them before they take the shot, as they won't be able to shoot in your realm.

USE YOUR SUPER (WITH MUSHROOM KINGDOM) WHEN YOU'RE LOW HP

Consuming all three mushrooms restores almost all of your HP, allowing you to return to battle swiftly.

BAIT ENEMY'S SUPERS WITH YOURS

If a brawler is about to eliminate you with their Super (like Dynamike's Super), use your Super on the nearest enemy to evade it. Switching between the two realms helps dodge numerous shots, but keep in mind it also affects the targeted enemy!
